Country Road

Well it’s a Billy (Grandson) day today but haven’t been in my room all week and thought while he’s asleep I would quickly get in and make this card that I have been wanting to get made.

We all know how hard it is to find a nice design for a male birthday card, well here’s a quick and easy one. It may look difficult but I can assure you it is so easy. Just using your sponges and inks to tone in a sunset look background. The colours I used were Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Cherry Cobler and some Fresh Fig. Of course you can create your own type of sunset tonings in whatever colours you wish. I cut a circle from one of my punches and used some washi tape to secure it while I did the sponging.

The stamp set is the adorable Country Road a great set for male cards! I also used the flying bird stamp from High Tide but only stamped one bird onto the card across the sun. Used a mask so that the other birds wouldn’t stamp.

The design is mounted onto Daffodil Delight cardstock and then that is mounted onto Early Espresso card.
